The simple things in life

Well, I had a really fun night last night. I was asked by the owner of the internet radio station that I do pre-recorded shows for (cuz Macs can't do live shows :P) to do some voiceovers for one of their most important sponsors. WOW!!!!!!!!! I felt very honored as I'm not a full-fledged DJ and only a few people were asked. Soooo cool. Anyway, I stayed up til midnight working on them (like an idiot…ha!), because I didn't read the email until 11…hahaha. Anyway, I think it was absolutely the most fun I've ever had. I really enjoyed it, and I think that perhaps I've finally found my niche in life. My friend, who IS a full-fledged DJ and an actor as well, listened to them and told me they sounded very professional. Woohoo! One of the other DJs, who is a DJ in “real” life, too, has encouraged me to get into voiceover work and gave me the info on getting my audition cd ready, which I will be doing as soon as we are settled into the house. This is really exciting for me, so think good thoughts okay? The next career move may be just around the corner, and maybe I will actually find something that really really makes me happy. :-)

In other news, moving is stressful and Mike and I decided that I need to take Friday off. So this will be a four-day week after a three day week last week. Things are definitely looking up!

Going to the cardiologist today, so I will have some more news this afternoon.

Life is good? You bet it is, and it better stay that way for a while. ;-)

Sentimental ol' Me

Well, this is the last Tuesday I'll be in this house. And for the most part, I've been so thrilled at the thought of being out of here, but for some reason today I'm a little more sentimental about leaving. There are good memories here…lots of them…but there is baggage, too…and it will be nice to make a fresh start in a new place with NO baggage. Well, of course we bring our own personal baggage with us wherever we go, but the house itself is pristine and pure…hahaha. What a week this will be. And look! I've posted two days in a row! What is up with that?

Can it really be….?????

Well, yes it can really be that we are actually, beyond a shadow of a doubt, absolutely, positively, no lie, going to….

MOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The house passed final inspection on Wednesday, and so come Thursday, January 30, we will be sleeping in the new house! And Saturday and Sunday will be the big move days. Don't know if we'll get EVERYTHING out those days, but most things we will. :)

In other news, I go back to the cardiologist on Wednesday to find out my test results. I haven't heard anything since I took the tests, so I assume that is good news.

I'm happier than I have been in a long time, for reasons which I will not go into here, and for reasons which are probably obvious to you.

My outlook is better, and I believe that all the health stuff is going to work out just fine.

AND, I have London to look forward to, which is always a good thing!

Okay, that's all for now. I'll try to write more this week as I have time (HA!!) But I'll for sure write after the move and let you know how it goes!

Oh! It's 2003!

Well, it's been awhile…so I thought I'd do an update on the life of Karin…

*Biopsy results: right side was a cyst…YAY! left side is probably benign, but there are abnormal cells and the samples are too small to be certain, so they want to remove it which means surgery. YAY/BOO at the same time. So, the good news is that it's mostly good news, but the bad news is that it's not over yet. *sigh*

*We may (crossing fingers) get the occupancy for the house this week. YAY! If not, then it should be next week. However, we are not moving in until the internet connection is in. No internet, no Karin. I'm not addicted really!!! hehehe

*Sunday is our 12th anniversary. There have been days, even months, when I've wondered if we'd make it this far. But here we are. I love that man, even though he annoys me sometimes. :)

There is more, but I'll save it for tomorrow when I'm not so tired. :)
